Arkansas was a good movie, and I would definitely call it unique as a whole. It has a common plotline but with some fun characters. I was entertained and interested enough to finish and want to see what happens with the story. As some have said there are some slow parts, which I was hoping would be culminated in the final chapter, but personally felt a little let down in that regard. I thought there was definitely room for more background on the characters and parts of the plot. Also, although I love a good dialogue film, which I would say this one is, I thought there was some room for a little more action in this story.

Based on movie alone I'd give it a 6/10, but with the fact that this was written and directed by Clark Duke as his debut, it's pretty impressive and for that I bump it up a star.

Final thought: I don't really see myself ever watching this again, but it was worth the watch.

Wasn't blown away by the pilot and can admit there are some fall-flat moments with the humor and acting, but I found myself laughing a good handful of parts and am interested in seeing what happens next and if overall this show finds its footing. I'll be giving it a few more episodes before bashing or praising.

Non-Stop was a great movie that kept me on the edge of my seat. It revolves around a sort of washed up air marshal who ends up being the target of a sick game being played by a terrorist on a plane that often leaves Nieson limited with options but nevertheless, determined. The plot is pretty creative and unique enough to give it a shot at watching, and it proves worth it. It's hard to make an action movie stand out nowadays but this one does so with the fear, suspense, and most of all...desperately wanting to know who is up to what. The movie keeps you guessing. I'll admit a bad movie when I see one, or one that maybe isn't worth a theater trip. I wish I had seen this one in theaters, instead of Unknown. Don't let that movie stop you from seeing this one. Liam's still got it and proves it in this movie.

I absolutely love movies and horror movies are ones I've always enjoyed. I even have a admittedly low standard for horror movies these days because of my love of being entertained, scared, and grossed out and I think it's ridiculous when people just bash every horror movie they see because those people are obviously never impressed because they're too good for everybody.

THAT BEING SAID... This movie is--remember I do NOT say this about movies much--one of the worst movies I've ever seen. It is an absolute disgrace to the horror genre and to movies as a whole. I'm astonished this has a 4.8 rating. I've been putting off making an account on here, but I made one finally just to rate this movie. Here's why:

It has one of the most basic painful cliché horror movie plots, and even that's to be expected. But this one is so bad that it has absolutely NO creativity, uniqueness, or anything to make you remember this movie. Every sequence is so forced and rushed just to meet this basic plot line. The lines that these poor actors were told to say make you cringe almost the whole movie because they are so predictable. I hate when people laugh at horror movies, but I was laughing at this one at some points, I couldn't help it.

The main circle of 'kids' all get killed within what seems like minutes of each other, leaving no room for viewer-fear or suspense (crucial part of a horror movie). Also leaves no room for creativity in each fight/chase/death, can't stress enough how much creativity this movie does NOT have. The bloodshed takes off so fast (in a bad way) and every part about it is incredibly basic and you don't even think to be scared. Not to mention the carnival scene is absolutely god-awful. "Hey there's a bunch of open land to run but let me grab onto this ferris wheel bucket to get away and then scream hysterically when it (whataya know) starts bringing me back down on the other side." I mean honestly, who thought of that and was like, YES LET'S DO THAT IT'S SO SCARY. I thought the quick bloodshed was weird until I realized they were forcing it in order to get on with the OTHER side of the 'story' involving the townspeople, mainly the mayor who has some of the most cringeful dialogues I've ever seen in a movie. This side of the story (last half of the movie) absolutely finished off my disgust. It is SO corny and lazily written that it hardly makes sense and you don't even know what's going on or who to root for----and not in the like "omg this is so intense I can't decide who I want to prevail!" but more like "I'm genuinely confused as to what these writers were even thinking at this point, did I miss something?"----

As some other reviews have pointed out, things in this movie don't even make sense. The main character is younger than she should be according to the plot. It's hard to ignore stuff like that and it's hard to get into the movie when you know the filmmakers were just careless and lazy. This movie has no respect for the Chainsaw movie franchise. It was essentially made to show you what a chainsaw coming at your face in 3D looks like. Yea...cool....

I was a tad nervous when I heard this movie was being made because it seemed too soon and not much more could be done with it, but I was still excited. Of course I loved the original, goes without saying. And I LOVED the 2003 remake and its prequel because they were a great adaptation with modern movie-making. They were suspenseful, entertaining, gross, and scary. The only one this one SOMEWHAT accomplishes is gore and let's face it...that's not very hard.

Stay away from this movie. Even if you're an open-minded horror movie watcher like myself. Nothing will entertain you. The only reason you should watch this is if you need to reassure your ability to identify a piece of junk movie. I have to say though, it did win the award in my mind for THE most cringeful, ridiculous line I've ever heard in a horror movie. "Do your thing, cuz" comes out of a character's mouth towards the end of the movie which, to me, was pretty much "Yea, viewer, if you haven't gotten the idea of what caliber this movie is, here it is, this is what we're about."

Terrible.
